Freddie isn't a legend...Since when? Dunno where you got that idea mate but Ljunberg holds Legend status right alongside the names you mentioned. He was a cracking player but his approach and the hair etc. Team's character, the team's heart, was personified in/by him.

Freddie's not a legend I dunno, you youngsters today. What next "Bergkamp weren't all that"??

Henry is a tricky one. I don't think he's at all ready for the top job yet. Freddie is best pick of former players as he's the one with the most experience of the players he has to work with right now. Knowing the players are already and having a working relationship, means he can hit the ground running, even if he's not quite ready. At this point Freddie's inside knowledge is worth more than anything the others could bring to the table. In practical terms he's the least likely to fail.

Freddie contributed nothing to the club in comparison to true legends like Adams, Henry, Bergkamp, Vieira, Pires... No offence to him or you but I don't think that's really up for debate.

Henry almost got Monaco relegated, no thanks, I would give Freddie a chance until summer.

I did like Freddie as a player though he turned out to be a bit of a gem. Preferred his red/pink spiky hair to the blue though
